Juventus midfielder Emre Can is reportedly open to signing for Manchester United at the beginning of 2020.

Since opting to leave Liverpool for Turin before the start of the 2018-19 campaign, Can has been restricted to 23 starts and 17 substitute outings in all competitions.

The Germany international is also out of favour under current head coach Maurizio Sarri, who decided to leave the versatile 25-year-old out of his squad for the Champions League.

Can is now being linked with a move away from the Serie A giants during the January transfer window, with several top European clubs, including United, being credited with an interest in his signature.

According to Tuttosport, Can would be happy to hold discussions with the Premier League outfit with a view of returning to the North-West of England.

Despite making 169 appearances for fierce rivals Liverpool, Can may be welcomed by United fans as they look to strengthen in the middle of the pitch.
